With this project I am reinstating the ambiguity into art historical paintings that are typically read from a flattened perspective. By introducing a new extreme into the realm of historical art interpretations I am building a wider spectrum of possible perspectives for contemporary art historians. This reflection based in antiquity that I am taking onContinue reading “The Impacts of Reclaiming Hetero-centric Interpretations of Ambiguous Histories”

Blog 3: Filling in the Gaps
So far I have not run into as many structural inequalities as differences. My community is very small and tight-knit, lessening the presence of structural inequalities. However, I will say that more than the pandemic, access to the internet seems to have created the most differences. The question of how much internet we are consumingContinue reading “Blog 3: Filling in the Gaps”
Spend a day with me!
Hello everyone, Onyie here! Today I am going to walk you through a day in my life. As the clinic that I have been working at is located in Daytona Beach, the first step of my routine is relocating myself. Daytona Beach is about an hour from my house, so I drive to Daytona inContinue reading “Spend a day with me!”
Research Update: Addressing the Struggles & Surprises
Project Title: Algorithmic Law Enforcement: Exploring the Human and Civil Rights Implications of Predictive Policing Reflecting on my first three weeks dedicated to my research project exploring the human and civil rights implications of data-driven and predictive policing, I am feeling satisfied with my project, and grateful for all I have learned through this process.Continue reading “Research Update: Addressing the Struggles & Surprises”
Research with a Purpose: The Apalachicola Oyster Fishery
Hello! This month I continued to work with my mentor to develop and implement a method for acidifying sediment samples. This process will allow me to remove inorganic carbon, specifically carbonates, and keep the organic carbon compounds for isotopic analysis. These isotopic ratios that I discussed in my last blog post will allow us toContinue reading “Research with a Purpose: The Apalachicola Oyster Fishery”
Navigating Challenges in My Research
The goal of my summer research seems fairly straightforward – build an application that takes in the DNA sequencing data of cancer cells and infer their evolutionary history. However, as I began to delve deeper into my project, I have encountered several challenges. This is my first time undertaking a computational project at this scale.Continue reading “Navigating Challenges in My Research”
Chemical Gardens and Measuring Bubbles
My experience with my research so far in May has been very progressive. When I first started after my little summer break, only a week, I got straight into work, however, I didn’t know just what I was doing yet. After coming back my research mentor and I discussed that I would be continuing anotherContinue reading “Chemical Gardens and Measuring Bubbles”
Begrudgingly Introspective
“My initial proposal expressed a special kind of vitriol for anyone who would dare interrogate the motivations of someone in a D/s relationship. Rather, a dynamic where one partner exerts an agreed upon amount of control over the other. My first attempts to explain such a relationship on paper were quickly scrapped, leading to theContinue reading “Begrudgingly Introspective”
Incremental Improvement in Experimental Design
During May, I have been primarily working on fixing some of the issues that we previously encountered with our current way of developing chips. As we continue to work on the development of 3-D printed chips, the improvement of our current photolithography-based devices has become a priority. The current issues we have encountered are mainlyContinue reading “Incremental Improvement in Experimental Design”
Uncovering the Mysteries of Scorpion Venom
Hello again, this is a quick update on everything that’s been going on with my project this last month, along with some potential issues that may be popping up soon. First and foremost, I dissected two male and two female scorpions for tissues to use for genome sequencing. While performing these dissections, I also preservedContinue reading “Uncovering the Mysteries of Scorpion Venom”
